Visually stunning I love movies that look like a dream.
My favorite character was mint-colored jacket
Gorgeous. Absolutely beautiful
Cinematography and visials were great, as is par for the course with Bava. However, plotwise, this one just sucks.
I love the dark creepy atmosphere the movie uses to pull you in right away, story is pretty easy to follow. Felt like a very long drawn out version of a stage play with some good horror elements added in, the ending definitely took me by surprise but was a cool and fun way to end the movie. Not bad at all .
